The logical address map determines which devices or memory areas appear in the logical address space. These are the addresses as seen from the CPU or the program that is run, but they need not correspond to the same physical address at all times. The correspondence is provided by the mapper.
Native mode
The native mode is also called MDOS mode. It is the mode which the Geneve initially boots to, typically with white letters on dark blue, and 80 column display.
